Meet Our Team
We love to make you smile! It begins from the moment that you enter the door of our warm and cozy atmosphere nestled in the growing area of downtown Alpharetta. Family and cosmetic dentist Dr. Robert O'Donnell and our warm and friendly team genuinely care about each patient and their dental health. We are a well-known, local family dental practice with a reputation that we're very proud of!
Michelle, Office Manager
I joined the team as Office Manager in January, 2020. I am a ‘people person’! You will communicate with me when you call our office, when you walk in for your appointment, and when you leave. I have worked in the dental field for over 37 years, initially as a dental assistant while attending the University of Evansville in Indiana. I enjoy helping others and I've always been fascinated with both the physical and mental improvement that I see when a patient's smile has been improved. While in school, I actually decided to change my initial career path and I committed to a career in dentistry. I've not looked back since!
I've known Dr. O'Donnell for more than 30 years, having worked as his dental assistant right after he graduated from Emory University's dental school. Working together again after so much time has passed has been rewarding for me. We work very well together, and I know he's an excellent dentist because I see the results firsthand every day.
When I'm not with my dental family, I enjoy family time with my adult son and daughter, specifically having fun with all kinds of outdoor water activities and hiking.
Adrienne, Registered Dental Hygienist
Being a Registered Dental Hygienist for Dr. O'Donnell is very fulfilling. Each day, I literally get to perform a ‘renovation’ on your smile - a ‘before’ and ‘after’! I joined the team in 2017.
I started my journey in the dental industry in 2004 as a Dental Assistant. In 2006, I earned my Associate of Science in Dental Hygiene degree from Georgia State University Perimeter College. Patients and friends often call me ‘gentle’ and ‘compassionate’ and I feel like those things come naturally to me. I like to focus on helping each patient feel comfortable and at ease. I have a professional commitment to creating beautiful smiles, building strong relationships with our patients, and creating a healthy oral environment that leads to overall optimal health.
My family and I reside in Ball Ground, and you can always say ‘Go Braves’ when you're with me! Away from work, I'm fond of running, indoor cycling, Alabama football, and spending time with my husband and two children.
Jennifer, Dental Assistant
It's very rewarding to see the renewed confidence that patients have in their smile after they've visited our dental office! This confidence comes from ongoing patient education and proper dental care over time.
I've enjoyed assisting Dr. O'Donnell for over 15 years. Being a part of this dynamic team of professionals is very meaningful and personally fulfilling for me. I enjoy coming to work every day! Our patients are like my extended family and I truly care about what's going on in their lives. I particularly appreciate building trusting relationships with our patients, as many of them have been coming to see us for a decade or more. I also take pride in expanding my knowledge of cutting-edge dental techniques and procedures and I value the frequent continuing education courses that we attend.
Some people are afraid of going to the dentist. Our office team takes every step possible to alleviate a patient's anxiety concerning our treatment and procedures. One of my favorite moments working with Dr. O'Donnell that I will never forget was when a patient told me that I changed her daughter's outlook on dental care because of my compassion and understanding. Dr. O'Donnell and our team understand that it's important to listen to your needs and make sure you're at ease while you're visiting us.
In my free time, I enjoy baking, traveling, and gardening. Most of all, I love spending time with my husband and two boys.
Kelly, Registered Dental Hygienist
I earned my Dental Hygiene degree from Georgia State Perimeter College. I enjoy being a part of helping patients learn about their dental health. It's rewarding to see patients respond so positively to their experience here! We can change so much about how they feel about themselves! My favorite part of my job is my interaction with the patients.
I recently rejoined this team after having worked with Dr. O'Donnell when I first entered the field of dentistry. After 15 years of being away, I was thrilled when an opportunity opened for me to work with Dr. O'Donnell again. I know what an excellent dentist he is, and I'm excited to be working in such an outstanding practice again.
When I'm not working, I enjoy going to the gym, working in my yard, and spending time with my children and my family.
